- Teach gptboot and gptzfsboot about new files. I haven't touched the
rest, but there is still a lot of code duplication to be removed.
- Implement full GPT support. Currently we just read primary header and
partition table and don't care about checksums, etc. After this change we
verify checksums of primary header and primary partition table and if
there is a problem we fall back to backup header and backup partition
table.
- Clean up most messages to use prefix of boot program, so in case of an
error we know where the error comes from, eg.:
gptboot: unable to read primary GPT header
- If we can't boot, print boot prompt only once and not every five
seconds.
- Honour newly added GPT attributes:
bootme - this is bootable partition
bootonce - try to boot from this partition only once
bootfailed - we failed to boot from this partition
- Change boot order of gptboot to the following:
1. Try to boot from all the partitions that have both 'bootme'
and 'bootonce' attributes one by one.
2. Try to boot from all the partitions that have only 'bootme'
attribute one by one.
3. If there are no partitions with 'bootme' attribute, boot from
the first UFS partition.
- The 'bootonce' functionality is implemented in the following way:
1. Walk through all the partitions and when 'bootonce'
attribute is found without 'bootme' attribute, remove
'bootonce' attribute and set 'bootfailed' attribute.
'bootonce' attribute alone means that we tried to boot from
this partition, but boot failed after leaving gptboot and
machine was restarted.
2. Find partition with both 'bootme' and 'bootonce' attributes.
3. Remove 'bootme' attribute.
4. Try to execute /boot/loader or /boot/kernel/kernel from that
partition. If succeeded we stop here.
5. If execution failed, remove 'bootonce' and set 'bootfailed'.
6. Go to 2.
If whole boot succeeded there is new /etc/rc.d/gptboot script coming
that will log all partitions that we failed to boot from (the ones with
'bootfailed' attribute) and will remove this attribute. It will also
find partition with 'bootonce' attribute - this is the partition we
booted from successfully. The script will log success and remove the
attribute.
All the GPT updates we do here goes to both primary and backup GPT if
they are valid. We don't touch headers or partition tables when
checksum doesn't match.

it possible to boot from ZFS RAIDZ for example from within VirtualBox.
The problem with VirtualBox is that its BIOS reports only one disk present.
If we choose to ignore this report, we can find all the disks available.
We can't have this work-around to be turned on by default, because some broken
BIOSes report true when it comes to number of disks, but present the same disk
multiple times.
- Change putc_func_t to use a char instead of an int for the character.
- Make functions and variables not used outside of this source file static.
- Remove unused prototypes and variables.
- The OFW read and seek methods take 3 and not 4 input arguments.
Before the change it wasn't possible and the following error was printed:
ZFS: can only boot from disk, mirror or raidz vdevs
Now if the original vdev (the one we are replacing) is still present we will
read from it, but if it is not present we won't read from the new vdev, as it
might not have enough valid data yet.

Current code doesn't check size of elf sections and may perform needless
actions of zero-sized memory allocation and similar.
The bigger issue is that alignment requirement of a zero-sized section
gets effectively applied to the next section if it has smaller alignment
requirement. But other tools, like gdb and consequently kgdb,
completely ignore zero-sized sections and thus may map symbols to
addresses differently.
Zero-sized sections are not typical in general.
Their typical (only, even) cause in FreeBSD modules is inline assembly that
creates custom sections which is found in pcpu.h and vnet.h. Mere inclusion
of one of those header files produces a custom section in elf output.
If there is no actual use for the section in a given module, then the
section remains empty.
Better solution is to avoid creating zero-sized sections altogether,
which is in plans.
Preloaded modules are handled in boot code (load_elf_obj.c), while
dynamically loaded modules are handled by kernel (link_elf_obj.c).

out that "on amd64, libstand.a is compiled for i386, but is still installed
under ${WORLDTMP}/usr/lib instead of ${WORLDTMP}/usr/lib32. Even if it
would be installed there, ld on amd64 is set up incorrectly with a
${TOOLS_PREFIX}/usr/lib/i386 default path, so it wouldn't link. The reason
it does link under gcc is that gcc passes -L${WORLDTMP}/usr/lib twice,
even for -m32 builds, which is also incorrect, but accidentally works in
this case."
